Calendar – Past Event

Dear readers and writers,

The postmark deadline for the third annual Missouri Review Audio & Video Competition, with its $4,500 in prize money, is Dec. 1. We’ve structured our categories to allow writers of all types and experience levels to participate. Writers may enter the Voice-Only Literature category—all you need is a great manuscript of fiction, poetry, or creative nonfiction, audio software that’s readily available, and a microphone—no need to fuss with music or other sound tracks. And it’s a great way to get recognized, especially since the universe of entrants is significantly less than our annual Jeffrey E. Smith Editors’ Prize contest.

Those more venturesome or experienced with sound may enter the Narrative Essay or Documentary categories. Also, this year, there is a video category. One winner from the video category will be featured at the prestigious True/False film festival in Columbia, Missouri. We also offer a “Best Student Entry” for each category.

Every entrant receives a one-year digital subscription to The Missouri Review. Each entry is $24. For more information and entry form, go to http://missourireview.com/contest/audio_competition.php.

Best wishes,

The editors of The Missouri Review
